[Bristol-Birds] Golden Eagle

Greetings,
                I was looking at a pair of pied-billed grebes today through 
my spotting scope when they both dove under the water quickly,and at the very 
same instant.  I looked up and saw a large bird in that area of the lake.  I 
went back to my spotting scope and saw an Adult Golden Eagle flying low over 
the 
lake.  It circled the area above the grebes a couple of times and landed in a 
tree on a nearby ridge. I watched this bird for at least 30 minutes before it 
moved on.  I didn't know that Golden Eagles hunted grebes, but I guess if you 
are an Eagle you can hunt whatever you want!
                                                                        
                                                                              
                         Good Birding,
